Conferences are great for watching personality traits on full display. Research has a strong social component by virtue of our modes for sharing results and new ideas. If you are a people watcher, the DNP will be fun. Physicists come in all flavor of crazy, smooth, maniacal, shy, funny, oblivious, painful-- the full spectrum. (Why did I put crazy first?) Our research skills aren't necessarily predictors of our public speaking skills, so it's a grab bag.
We all have our own personal lists of people whom we rate highly for both their research and deft speaking or language skills. The CEU students might appreciate a list of talks you'd highly recommend. Who is a good speaker no matter the topic?
